10,000 midnights - the spill canvas lyrics
“10,000 midnights”
10,000 midnights ago.
uptown at the harlem apollo,
you sang a long, long blues,
i loved they way you worked your voodoo.
10,000 midnights ago.
i wound up my watch til the spring broke,
my my, time is so unkind.
she got punch-drunk in the moon-shine
old new york, tell me the truth,
you know her better than i do,
i’m just another hand-me-down.
10,000 midnights ago.
i heard your voice, not your echo.
grand central valentine,
tear my heart out on the main line.
10,000 midnights ago.
i lived just to die in your shadow.
black satin melody,
that’s what i heard when you left me.
old new york, tell me the truth,
you know her better than i do,
i’m just another hand-me-down.
10,000 midnights ago.
i held myself back in the front row.
you effect my memory,
all consuming without mercy.
10,000 midnights ago.
worn like a black and white photo,
i stood behind the lens,
took your portrait, now i’m forgotten.
